Design for technology and science

Product Design

Our Product Designers collaborate from the earliest product planning stages with your CTO and CEO to ensure that your app is designed for a great user experience.

Product Design has very little to do with aesthetics.

Like architects, Product Designers are focused on how the product will be used by customers. They design flow diagrams, wireframes, and final mockups to guide the dev team. They can also build interactive visual prototypes for testing and demonstration purposes. They are well-versed in UX best practices, accessibility requirements and global standards.

Without a Product Designer, you run the risk of building a product that works well for you, but is difficult to use for customers who may never have heard of you before, or who have been using a competitor’s product or a workaround to get the job done.

Branding for deep tech and abstract science

Cutting through the noise is more challenging than ever, especially when selling an abstract product or service rooted in complex science and deep tech.

Brand design is essential for startups looking to quickly establish a presence in the marketplace or raise a round of funding. It builds trust and sets expectations for a great product launch.

We offer a range of different Branding packages that include:

  • Brand design (colours fonts, logo, Brand Usage Guidelines)
  • Marketing website (layouts, single- or multi-page website)
  • Branded slide decks and graphics for Social Media
  • Event materials: banners, flyers, cards, signage, swag

What our clients are saying

“I’ve been through a few branding and re-branding exercises and found the ACN offering to be a great (and solid value for money). The team spent time up-front to get to know my product, target audience, GTM approach, competitive material, and general preferences. They were always highly collaborative and balanced responding to my requests and holding their ground when their expertise suggested a different direction. I’m very happy with the end result and feel like it matches what I want for my startup’s next stage of growth.”

— Brad Micklea, CEO @ jozu.com

“Thank you for recommending Claire to help with Auxa’s design needs. I wanted to let you know it was a delight to work with her, and we ended up having a real polished demo too. I truly hope I get to work with her again in the future, and that she enjoyed working with us too (albeit there was time pressure).”

— Shabnam Shaderman, PhD, Chief Product Officer @ Auxahealth.com

“ACN’s technical range was a game-changer for Podsie. First, their team’s versatility saved us the hassle and time of hunting for specialized talent. A few weeks into our work together, we quickly realized we needed some product design guidance, and ACN was able to quickly staff a Product Designer to the project and consultation on how to hire our own Product Designer. For a small nonprofit like us, that kind of quick adaptability is invaluable.”

— Joshua Ling, Founder @ Podsie.org
